When I first started my blog , my intention was to celebrate beans and rice every Monday as a Meatless day. I never did get around to doing it and unfortunately I don't see it anywhere in my future:) Too bad because your three dishes in one would have made three Monday posts, lol...not to mention how it would make my tummy sooooo happy!

Dear Nee, Love all of these renditions of beans with rice. What a different idea, making these on Monday. I never knew the story of the ham bone which is why you would make the beans and rice. I am always learning something new from you and the other food blogger ladies. That is the fun of it all, learning from each other. The red beans and rice recipe looks very hearty and yummy for sure. Thanks for sharing...Blessings Dottie :)
